What I'm proposing
Two new skill categories with 9 skills + 4 agents — a domain that doesn't currently exist in ECC.
Network Engineering (5 skills)
network-bgp-diagnostics — BGP neighbor state diagnosis, AS path analysis, stuck session troubleshootingcisco-ios-patterns — IOS/IOS-XE config syntax, show commands, wildcard masks, privilege levelsnetwork-interface-health — CRC errors, duplex mismatches, drops, flap detection + Python parsernetmiko-ssh-automation — multi-vendor SSH automation, parallel batch ops, TextFSM parsingnetwork-config-validation — dangerous command detection, syntax validation, subnet overlap/duplicate IP checks
Homelab (4 skills)
homelab-network-setup — IP scheme design, hardware selection, DHCP, common beginner mistakeshomelab-vlan-segmentation — IoT/guest/trusted VLANs on UniFi, pfSense, MikroTikhomelab-pihole-dns — Pi-hole install, blocklists, DNS-over-HTTPS, local DNS recordshomelab-wireguard-vpn — WireGuard server, peer config, split tunnel, DDNS, key generation
Agents (4)
network-troubleshooter — OSI-layer-by-layer symptom diagnosis with ranked hypothesesnetwork-config-reviewer — security audit for router/switch configs (VTY, SNMP, ACLs, NTP)network-architect — enterprise network design from requirements (WAN, DC, routing, segmentation)homelab-architect — complete home network plan from hardware inventory + goals
Why it fits ECC
ECC currently has no networking or homelab skills at all. These two categories serve two large underserved audiences: enterprise network engineers and homelab enthusiasts.
All skills have been manually tested in Claude Code. Each auto-activates correctly on relevant prompts.

All files are ready: https://github.com/arsallls/claude-network-skills
Happy to split into smaller PRs if preferred.
